“Not a Distraction”: Chanel Rion Has a Different Theory About the B-2 Bombers Sent to Guam

Most political commentators believe the move early Saturday to send B-2 Stealth Bombers to Guam were just a distraction. They believe the White House wanted eyes in Iran and other nations pointed west while the U.S. was preparing to strike from the east.

One America News host Chanel Rion had a very different take.

What if the message wasn’t being sent to Iran but to China instead?

For those tracking Guam…

It seems the B2’s sent there were not a “distraction” – they were a warning.

To China.

We aren’t taking our eye off the ball—Taiwan.

It’s viable. In fact, it makes a lot more sense when we consider the effort and expense required to send B-2 bombers anywhere. Moreover, Iran was in no position to do anything about the United States’ bombings and cruise missiles even if President Trump had called the Ayatollah and said, “We’re on our way.”

China is still a far bigger threat to America’s interests than Iran. They aren’t just engaged in a trade war with us. They’re also trying to solidify their position in various technological races such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing.

Taiwan is crucial to the United States in both regards.

There are many moving parts happening across the globe that are centered on responses to what’s happening in the Middle East. Buckle up, folks. It’s getting real.
